"A day for every generation of Mets fan." - Mets

He has an ERA of 3.38, an average WHIP of 1.20, and has registered 88 strikeouts so far this season. Although he has a 10-3 (W-L) record, he has struggled on the hill in his last five outings, giving away hits and runs early in the game.

The Dodgers will send Andrew Heaney to the hill against the Mets. He has a W-L of 2-1, an ERA of 1.94, and a good WHIP of 1.01, making it difficult for the hitters to reach base. He punched out 10 hitters in six IP in his last outing against the Milwaukee Brewers and registered a win. He is an experienced SP who would want to assert control from the onset of the game.
